She brightened, eyes lighting up. "He's my side kick of sorts!"

"Y-You have a-a sidek-kick?" Ava asked, looking quite surprised. She had gone over surveillance footage of almost every fight Shockwave had with Siren and their was never a sidekick.

"Like I said, of sorts. He just helps me out with things like kidnapping, obviously."

Ava looked at the floor when 'kidnapping' was mentioned. "W-What even h-happened? H-How did I g-g-get here?"

"I tracked you down, and Nathaniel knocked you out. Hit you a little too hard, apparently."

Am I that easy to track? "H-How did y-you f-find me?" She asked. Does she know where I live? She could barely remember what happened but she knew she was at her office.

"Nope! I managed to get a hold of some people who knew you."

Who knows me? I barely know anyone. "Wh-Why am I-I here?" She asked. She knew that she was here because she worked for Shockwave but why did she take her?

Aika's expression darkened. "Because I'm sick of losing to that asshole."

Ava tensed up at the darkening of Sirens mood. She stared at the floor, not wanting to make eye contact with her when she was like this.

Aika shook her head, and her mood appeared to suddenly shift. "Anyway, yeah. Figured you'd be my best bet."

Me? They have so many other people in their lives. Wait. She doesn't know about them probably. I'm one of the only people she associates with Shockwave. Ava still wouldn't look at Siren.

Aika stretched languidly, and turned back to her laptop. "You hungry or anythin"?"

"N-No." She said truthfully. She wasn't hungry and she was fine other than her head hurt slightly and she was tied to a chair.

"Alright then. To work I guess." Aika flopped down in the chair. "I need info, tips, anything that can help me beat Shockwave."

So this was why she was here. "I-I'm not j-just going t-to give you i-information l-like that." Ava said, trying to sound calm but failing misbrly.

So this was why she was here. "I-I'm not j-just going t-to give you i-information l-like that." Ava said, trying to sound calm but failing misbrly.

Aika groaned, rolling her eyes. "Come on. I can't just keep using my power on you. What'll it take, huh? Money, power, love? I can get you any of it."

"I-I don't w-want a-anything." Ava said quietly. She never really wanted any of that stuff.

Aika blinked. "Come on, really? Everyone wants something."

Ava shook her head. She spent her life doing what she loved. Making gadgets and robots. Sure she did get a little lonely but the robots always kept her company along with Shockwave.

Aika spun the chair, thinking while it spun. "There's gotta be something. Everyone wants something." She muttered to herself.

Ava just kept silent. She had no idea what would happen after this. Torture? Threats?

"You're serious? There's just…nothing you want?" She seemed to be having a hard time wrapping her head around that. She was used to people always wanting something from her, always jumping at the chance to use her abilities for gain.

Ava shook her head. "I-I really don't n-need a-anything." She said. O god I hope this doesn't make her mad.
